The black DPA 4062 CORE is a miniature, moisture-resistant lavalier microphone designed for use with wireless systems for broadcast, performance, and theatrical applications. The electret-condenser capsule offers an extremely low sensitivity setting that allows it to handle very loud vocalists, performers, and instruments. The mic delivers crisp, clear, and intelligible audio, while the rugged yet unobtrusive design is well suited to the demands of professional live stage work and presentations.

This version of the 4062 uses DPA's CORE technology to deliver a 16 dB increase in dynamic range and a 16 dB reduction in noise over the 4062 Legacy model. The mic includes two interchangeable capsule-protection grids that alter the sonic character of the microphone. The High-Boost Grid creates a peak at 12 kHz, helpful for chest placement, while the Soft-Boost Grid offers a subtle boost between 8 to 20 kHz, lightly enhancing signal presence to ensure clarity.

With an SPL rating of 154 dB, the microphone is more than capable of handling very loud speakers, vocalists, and presenters. The 4062 can even be used to effectively mic talent during high-volume sporting events such as auto racing where loud engine noise would cause distortion in many other lavs. The mic can also be used very effectively to capture loud instruments including brass, drums, and percussion—making it a flexible tool for houses of worship and live event productions. The 4062 CORE is powered by 5 to 10V plug-in power from a wireless transmitter and features a modular design using a Microdot output connector. Separately available adapters allow you to use the mic with a wide variety of transmitters.

Or if you already have the RODE Wireless GO II Single Compact Digital Wireless Microphone System/Recorder, you can use a second wireless mic system. It is possible to use two of the Wireless GO II Systems at the same time, and it is also possible to connect them both to a camera with a single 3.5mm mic input by using a mini mixer like the Kopul CMX-1-V2 Two-Channel Mini Mixer with Shoe Bracket (B&H # KOCMX1V2).
